O living flame of heavenly love! Thine heart hath been so fired with the
love of God that from ten thousand leagues afar its warmth and radiance
may be felt and seen. The fire lit by mortal hand imparteth light and
warmth to but a little space, whereas that sacred flame which the Hand of
God hath kindled, though burning in the east, will set aflame the west and
give warmth to both the north and the south; nay, it shall rise from this
world to glow with the hottest flame in the realms on high, flooding with
light the Kingdom of eternal glory.
Happy art thou to have obtained so heavenly a gift. Blessed art thou to be
favoured with His divine bestowals.
The glory of God rest upon thee and upon them that hold fast unto the sure
handle of His Will and holy Covenant.
